Holiday Beauty Gift Guide- More to Stuff Your Stockings

For those of you still looking for some tidbits to stuff in those stockings, here are a couple of options, and all under $40!

In the spirit of the holiday season, Sephora has released several holiday gift set samplers that showcase best selling products in minaiture. I like to think of these kits as beauty appetizers, introducing you to several different brands and products, based on a common theme.

Me being me, I couldn't resist picking up the Glitz and Glam sampler, for review purposes only of course. ;)

With a total of ten gilded minis, Glitz and Glam has everything you need to get your inner bronzed goddess on.

 

This kit comes with:
- 0.27 oz Tarte Celebutante Dry Oil Shimmer Spray
- 0.3 oz Smashbox Artificial Light Luminizing Lotion in Flash (iridescent pink)
- 0.17 oz Tarte Glam Gams
- 0.4 oz Tarte Lock & Roll in Bronze (shimmering true bronze)
- 0.28 oz Guerlain Meteorites Powder Pearls for the Face in Beige Chic (golden glow)
- 0.17 oz Tarte Cheek Stain in Eco-Cheek (coral with a touch of shimmer)
- 0.23 oz Sephora Super Shimmer in Desert Gold (rosy tan with pink and gold shimmer)
- 0.06 oz Laura Geller Blush-N-Brighten in Sunswept (bronze, coral, and rose)
- 0.59 oz Smashbox Eyeshadow in 24K (true gold shimmer)
- 0.1 oz Laura Geller Lip Shiner in City Lights (pink and gold flecked glimmer)

 

Of course out of all the items, I was most excited about the miniature tub of Guerlain meteorites. So gorgeous!

 

Swatches:

 

1: Smashbox Artificial Light

2: Tarte Celebutante

3: Laura Gellar Gloss

You can still find the Sephora samplers online, or in your local Sephora store. Amazing for gifting, these kits have all kinds of tasty treats to keep your beauty hunger pangs at bay.

Hydraessence Skincare Mini Set

Another affordable holiday gifting option, the Serenity Hydra Deluxe Traveler's kit comes with miniatures for all of your skincare needs. Included are:
Hydrating Cleansing Balm
Essence of Hydration
Hydrating Crème Concentrate for Eyes
Hydrating Protection SPF 30
Hydrating Crème Concentrate
All of it comes packed into a cute little tote, and only costs $25! Find it here, and stuff them stockings.

Mini Tweezerman

When talking tweezers, I think you will all agree with me that Tweezerman does tweezers better than anyone else out there. Especially for the holidays, Tweezerman has these adorablely decorated mini tweezers, that make a pretty little edition to your stockings. These little cuties are available at Sephora.

What are you hoping to find in your stocking this year?
